Rescue missions after this week’s devastating earthquakes in Turkey and Syria are well underway. Scientists at the University of Twente have developed various post-disaster solutions to help first responders, but their technology hasn’t made it to practice. ‘We have drones, algorithms and other advanced technology, but our solutions are not used,’ say ITC researchers Norman Kerle and Francesco Nex.

The ITC Faculty at the University of Twente has a long tradition in using UAVs, drones, mapping and photogrammetry. We use drones and unmanned aerial vehicles for geoscience applications, research and capacity-building projects. Over the last decade, ITC has given educational courses on drones and the use of UAVs worldwide.
